List

These lists are for informational purposes in regard to my term of service in Vietnam.
The Battalion Roster is an ongoing attempt to locate the names of each individual that served with 7/11 Artillery during its tour of duty in Vietnam.
I have included B, C and HQ battery rosters in March 2012.

A Battery Soldiers Wounded at FSB Crook in May 1969

Two of our six 105mm howitzer crews took direct hits during a night mortar attack. I believe 14 men were injured, some injured were Med-Evaced at night and under fire, to the emergency hospital in Tay Ninh. 21st Evac. I think. Any corrections or additional names are welcome.

June 19, 1969 Jack Sweitzer and Tom McMullen (fat albert) were severly wounded by a recoilless rifle round that hit as we ate lunch. The gun had been randomly lobbing in rounds for over a week and was hidden in an abandoned FSB nearby.Two of our six 105mm howitzer crews took direct hits during a night mortar attack.

A Battery 7/11 Artillery Roster During Vietnam

Battalion Roster

Lots of people helped build this list. John Clark and his magical memory, Phillip Grenado supplied the copies of the October 31, 1969 Battery Roster, Richard Yopeck (deceased) supplied names from God knows what paper work and I recorded some from papers I kept from my time in Vietnam. In February 2012 John Mohler sent me a battery roster done in 1966 as 7/11 deployed from Hawaii to Vietnam, those names are now posted and designated by an (*).
